Glenn Brown, UK


Glenn Brown, UK
I like this artist because he combines classical art with something modern. He was sharp colors and a tinge of one contrasting color and uses swirls and lines to promote value. He also creates surrealistic paintings, inspired by works of Salvador Dali and adds something new and hip to it.

  2. If my understanding is correct, the painting from the link has surrealistic qualities because the artist coloured the puppies, the girl's skin and her eyes in contrasting colours right?

  4. I'm mesmerized by the fact that the artist has chosen to paint his surrealistic views on canvas using such bright colors. It's not too appealing to the eyes but its kinda cool how he's used such vibrant colors for most of his pieces.
    I really liked his 'You Take My Place in This Showdown' piece.
